In the last few years Athens has been one of the most visited places in Europe

In the last few years Athens has been one of the most visited places in
Europe, due to all the beauties it
possesses, even so Santorini is an island that is a little
longer than Athens, but awakens the curiosity of everyone found in Greece,
there are many options to move from one place to another, but the fastest is by
ferry, the price is higher, but you just need to wait around for a few hours in
order to reach your destination, which for tourists is much better, because in
this way can take advantage of the two destinations and multiply the
opportunities for unforgettable experiences. The ferry allows you to move to
different places such as Andros that is the northernmost island
and the second largest of the Cyclades. Those who prefer a less crowded landscape
will feel satisfied by choosing to Andros. Two hours (or even in a
high-speed boat from Rafina), the island offers several options to any person
fascinated by the archaeological and cultural heritage, Venetian tower-houses,
trails and “emasies”, hillsides transformed into staggered forms with
the use of stone walls.

There are three main settlements: the main city Time, also
known as Andros, is full of mansions neocalsicales and a cosmopolitan
atmosphere; Gavrio is the main port with several connections
to Rafina, every day; Batsi is a fishing village with a
smaller port and tourist centers that are animated. Sandy, accessible beaches
are found mainly in the western part of the island. Those who prefer the quiet
with the rough landscape must prove the northeastern part or southeast. On the
other hand we have to Chania is the second largest city of
Crete, situated in the northwest of the island and the most evocative of the
island. The city is divided into two parts: the old town and the modern city.
The Venetian influence and turkish marks the old town. A Venetian quarter of
picturesque streets leads to a single port. Some of the venetian tower-houses
have been restored to house boutique hotels and good restaurants. The old
mosque in the port adds to the charm of the city. Chania
has some of the best restaurants on an island that
boasts of its cuisine. Spend a few days in the old town is
totally satisfying. Consider it also as a transit point before touring
the Samaria Gorge.

By ferry you can visit the port city of Piraeus, Greece, sits
on the Saronic Gulf, in the Attica region of the country and forms part of
the urban area of Athens, with the center of Athens at 12 km from the port. The
center of Piraeus is usually congested traffic and is usually not a
place that tourists go. The area has many of the facilities expected of a
tourist area: banks, public buildings, pedestrian areas, streets to buy and
others. The area around sea Marina and Port of Mikrolimano are
probably the most attractive areas of Piraeus and have a good
selection of restaurants, cafés and bars. Piraeus is the main port
of Greece, the biggest in Europe and the third largest in the world. Of course,
it is the center of the maritime industry of Greece and the basis of its
merchant marine. Having recently undergone renovation, the port’s
facilities have improved and include automatic teller machines, currency
exchange, restaurants, cafés, bars and a large amount of travel agencies that
sell ferry tickets. The destinations that offers the port include the island of
Crete, the Cyclades islands, the Dodecanese islands, the parts of the eastern
Greece and parts of the north and east of the Aegean Sea. The ferries
connect Greece to Cyclades and is operated by 5 ferry
companies, many options can help if you want to move more cheaply or paying a
little more, is good to do a price comparison to fit your pocket, before
everything you need to make a reservation, taking into account the departure
time of the same, when you have chosen the perfect navigation they will send
you an email as confirmation, and thus maintain order in all its users.

All ferries handle traverses for
up to 16 times per week, and each one has a combination of 49 outputs that
are available in the path of the Piraeus Thira between Athens
and the Cyclades, offered by 5 ferry companies, it is advisable to compare them
all to make sure you get the best price at the time you wish to travel. The
season of the year affects ticket prices, these increase during the months of
September, October, November and December, this is due to the large influx of
people in these months of the year, generally in those days people have more
time, and use it by visiting fantastic places, as well as is Santorini.
One of the best options is to go by ferry so you can enjoy the landscape with
more peace of mind, giving you a different experience to tourists, as well as
ferries allow you to carry all the accessories that possess it, since they
are very permissive. Another important point is that it does not prevent you
from being able to travel with your pets, if they are also a member of the
family, it makes no sense for a trip does not allow to take them with you, so
it is an excellent option for all those who have pets and do not want to leave
at home. If you are not sure what the route from Athens
